JEE Main2012MathematicsThree Dimensional GeometryActual
If the lines x-1 2 = y+1 3 = z-1 4 and x-3 1 = y-k 2 = z 1 intersect, then k is equal to
Options
- A-1
- B2 9
- C9 2
- D0
Correct answer
C. 9 2
Step-by-step solution
Any point on x-1 2 = y+1 3 = z-1 4 =t is (2 t+1,3 t-1,4 t+1) And any point on x-3 1 = y-k 2 = z 1 = s is (s+3,2 s+k, s) Given lines are intersecting t =- 3 2 and s =-5 k = 9 2
